Comment (by humdinger):
Replying to [comment:8 axeld]:
What do you mean by "but not save it as the new coordinates, imo". The
size the window had on close should be the one that is saved. That's how
Tracker and other apps handle it, and I see no reason to deviate here.
This was my thinking: I place and resize the SoftwareUpdater window where
I want it to appear and large enough for the 'usual' number of updatable
packages. Now, the number of items to be updated may change every time
SoftwareUpdater is launched. So when my pre-configured window size is too
small, I click Zoom to best fit.
Next time, the number of packages might be back to about the number
experience showed to be a 'usual" number of updatable packages. The
window, however, then still has the previous "best-fit" dimensions that
are now too big.
So, I was wondering, if the contents of the SoftwareUpdater isn't more
volatile compared to other apps and if it wouldn't make sense to rather
always open with the user-set default window coords.
Granted, I may have overthunk the situation and we can have people that
don't like that either don't use the Zoom button (that would probably be
me) or click Zoom again before quitting the app. :)
